Sobre Spring

Escrito pela empresa

Hi we're Spring! We’re changing the way the world consumes tech.

We make selling tech as easy as pie, as safe as houses and as planet-friendly as can be.

We understand that it is nerve-wracking selling your old devices. So, unlike other companies that buy your tech, we ask you to give a quick, but thorough run-through about the condition of your device, before giving you a range of prices (rather than a single price). That way, when you get your offer, the price should be within the expected range (provided the info you provided is accurate).

Plus, our tech-sperts will also give you a comprehensive Tech Report for every device that you send us to understand how we arrived at the valuation. If you want to sell tech the easy way, or find out more info, visit: spring.co.uk

Unbelievably fast!

The process from initial quote to final payment was unbelievably fast and fully transparent. Received the padded envelope the day after ordering. Money was in my account two days later. Plus, their customer service was responsive and super helpful throughout the process. Definitely will use again!

There would've been a significant reason for this price difference. We've requested your info so we can look into this fully for you.

Poor pricing and evaluation offer.

I went to a comparison site to find the best offer for my iPhone 13 Pro Max as I had recently upgraded. Spring at the time offered £507 for an unlocked and in good condition phone. I thought this was reasonable and sent it off. On the day it arrived an evaluation was performed. The evaluation said that the phone had some damage to the screen and case with the price counter offered at £332

Now I have had a screen protector and case from the moment I received it as EE send this with your phone so disputed it. To which the response was our ‘industry professionals’ reviewed the device and this is what they are offering.

I checked on the comparison site and the price for my phone has dropped to £416 with Spring.

I think it is very poor of a company to offer a high price and try to point out things that are wrong when none can be found to reduce the offer they first gave.

If Spring isnt willing to pay the offer for a very well looked after handset then don’t offer it in the first place.

Hi Luke - we'll always pay the price offered if the item gets to us within 14 days and we believe the condition is the same as declared.

We also always offer free tracked returns if our customers are unhappy in any way with the offer so that they can find another deal if they'd prefer.

The estimated value is a lure - don't be fooled

I selected Spring to sell my iPhone 14 Pro based on the generally positive reviews on Compare and Recycle.

Spring gave me an estimated value of £636.

When they had (allegedly) inspected my phone, the 'guaranteed value' offered dropped to £493.

Despite having been in a case and babied from the moment it was purchased, the 'tech report' claimed that the edges showed "some signs of use" and that the glass was "well used".

More bizarrely, despite passing every single check (sensors, location, wireless, biometrics etc.), Spring's report claimed that the power button on my phone was non-functional. One wonders how they ran their checks with an inoperable power button.

I have rejected their offer and am waiting for Spring to return my phone. I hope it will be returned to me in the same condition as I sent it.

Thank you for providing your email so we can look into this fully.

Our valuations are not guaranteed until we receive and check the device. I understand that you looked after your phone well and the back of it was noted as scratch free. I can't see any reference to the power button being faulty on our side, sorry if you can see a reference to this, but it has no impact on the price as we have it as fully working on our system. What did affect the price was moderate scratches on the screen and light scratches around the charger plug. You can read more about condition definitions here https://intercom.help/Spring/en/articles/8120068-compare-and-recycle-condition-options-explained.

I'm sorry that you weren't happy with the final value but we do send items back for free via tracked delivery if any customer is unhappy and I can see this is due to be delivered to you today. We hope you can find another deal that you're happier with.

AVOID!!

When selling the phone I was asked the condition which was good (no more than a few marks) explained by their website which I selected as the phone was in good condition. When they received the phone the immediately reduced the payment down by £128 even thou the phone was in perfect working order. Avoid this company!

Depending on the depth and location of the few marks you mentioned this could lead to the phone not meeting the 'good' definition. But having received your info from TP we've now been able to look at your item and unfortunately the phone did have a fault (The screen becomes unresponsive on and off and needed to be replaced). This is the main reason the value was reduced and we were unable to pay the good price.

I'm sorry you're not happy with the final value but I can see you chose to accept this instead of getting a free tracked return and the money was sent to you on Friday.

Good service

The best packaging experience, and UI for their website. Offered a good price and was a fair valuation. Unfortunately there was a payment issue, and although kept in the loop
Initially, communication broke down and had to be chased for money a week or so later. Other than that, very good, and yes, I would use them again.

Thank you for updating your very fair review in the circumstances. We're sorry again that there was an unexpected issue with your payment and thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

We do hope to see you again and that you have a much smother journey next time!

overall experience

Still waiting for my payment, was told this is due to a technical issue on their side, now a week since they gave me my final valuation and I agreed to it, when contacting spring, was told I have the option to have them send it back to me so that I can sell elsewhere, however not viable. Other then that cant complain, will edit my score once I have been paid.

Original post on 2.10.23.
Value agreed and payment requested 26.9.23.
Update 3.10.23, still not paid.
Update 4.10.23, still not paid.

Update 5.10.23 their payment issue has been resolved andmy payment has now been processed, I have now changed my rating from 2 to 4. Overall the process was very smooth, my final value offered was only £3 less than the original offer, and the shipping and checking process was very smooth. Would have given them 5/5 if not for the delay in payment.

Awful Experience, totally absurd monies paid!

Awful!
Given a price of btw £30/35 and appraisal was £14 this is absolutely absurd and I won’t be recommending this company to anyone ever! The phone was in good used condition not smashed and fully working, could’ve sold privately but liked the ethos so sold on here. Never again!!!!

It seems the original quote was given for your iPhone 7 Plus in February. Phone prices do change significantly over time and we can only fix prices for 14 days. This time difference and the fact that we did think the phone was well used both resulted in the value being lower than the initial quote.

We do offer free returns but I can see you accepted the final value and the money was withdrawn to your bank account.

Great experience and best price.

Excellent experience from start to finish. Envelope received within a day of registering online. Spring offered the best price out of all of the companies on comparison sites. Returned my phone and received notification of receipt and status update. I was expecting a reduced price but original offer was paid and money was available within a couple of days. Would definitely use this company again.

Technical issue

Spring returned my phone to due a technical issue on their end, did not inspect my device or offer to accept a delayed inspection and payment, which I would have preferred. As a result phone trade in prices had dropped for my iphone since I locked in my quote with them, had to organise another trade in at a lower value as a result

Due a system delay in processing we returned devices where we believe the condition of the phone was not the same as declared. We did this as we didn't want customers to wait a week and then receive a final value that was lower than expected.

This was what we believe was the fairest in the circumstances but we're sorry you're unhappy and we hope you have been able to get a payment you were happy with elsewhere.

Quoted £310 then offered £229

Quoted £310 then offered £229, Their report says some signs of wear to screen and sides and that was enough to reduce their quote by almost £100. Get real. Won’t use again and wouldn’t recommend.

Unfortunately there was visible wear that we believed was more than minor (and can be seen on the before photos you uploaded) so we couldn't pay the 'good' price.

I can see the phone has been returned to you and we hope you've been able to find a price you're happier with elsewhere.

Prior reviews

Prior reviews were the reason for using this service. However first experience will be my last i feel.
Originally offer was knocked down, which i can understand. But the issue is i cannot withdraw my funds due to a technical error. I had to chase them for information and after 3 days still no resolution or timescale for resolution. A sceptic would say something is very wrong.

Gave a very impressive valuation for my iPhone 8 and reduced it by 40% when seen. There were 2 scratches on the screen but all else was like new as protected by a case. I accepted rather than go through the whole process again. Felt cheated.

Resposta da Spring

As you mentioned there were scratches on the screen of your iPhone 8 Plus.

The initial value was based on the item being 'good' which is defined as "very light scratching on the edges but not deep scratches...Any scratches on the screen shouldn't be visible when the screen is on. And scratches on the screen will affect the value of the device more than scratches elsewhere".

This is why the initial value was reduced. I can see you discussed this with our CS team who offered to return it for free but you decided the accept the final value and I can see the money has now been withdrawn.
